Editors Follow-Up ëThe Back Roomí

One of this year's biggest UK buzz bands, the Editors, have retreated to Ireland to record their sophomore release.

Frontman Tom Smith posted on the band's official website that the band will spend a month in Ireland to record "the bulk" of their second record, after spending 20 months on the road behind their debut The Back Room.

The band has already recorded a couple of tunes "Bones" and "The Weight of the World" and has 12 new songs "and a host of other ideas floating around," according to the website. Aside from the afore mentioned tunes Smith says, "To get your imagination / juices flowing here are some of the titles being thrown around at this point in time: "Smokers Outside The Hospital Doors," "The Racing Rats," "An End Has A Start," "When Anger Shows," "Push Your Head Towards The Air," "A Thousand Pieces," "An Eye For An Eye."

Smith also added, "The album won't be finished before Christmas but the break will give us chance to see our families, eat mince pies, get drunk and say hi to Santa, then maybe some more writing before we start recording again in the new year."
